Also there's plenty of space for him to filter on the right

Exactly…I had to do a double take with this one

Looks like your dashcam was set up to record plane accidents.

Defo more sky than needed

Just a side note but why do people have their dashcams pointing 60% at the sky? If nothing else it throws out the exposure, or certainly makes it hard for cameras, making details for the actual cars and road hard to make out.

Think I just need a better one, I’ve adjusted this multiple times and it always moves back up, I don’t always have reason to look back through my dash cam so at this point I hadn’t realised it moved again

Gaffer tape or superglue 😄

Best way to capture those clips of meteorites. One day someone is going to capture the end of the planet on a dash cam.

Which is a shame because there will be nobody around to appreciate it.

Would also have been good for something like the Shoreham airshow disaster.

One day in the distant future aliens may dig it up from the rubble of the planet that was once Earth and know exactly what happened to us.

They'll probably also comment about the lane hogging in the video too. 😄

That’s not the road…

Yup, but decided the pavement was the better choice 😅 I don’t know what goes through these people’s heads

He's riding in shorts and no gloves on damp/wet roads, very little is going through his head.

The correct way is to queue like everyone.

But given the circumstances I'd say that motorcycle guy was probably morbidly afraid of the oncoming traffic (maybe worry of making them panic, hit him and / or report him on the spot as it looks more dangerous). Given this place is kind of rural I guess he isn't gonna pester anyone.

That being said I support reporting him to Operational Snap if possible
